Edward Thomas 3 March 1878 - 9 April 1917

Edward Thomas is considered by many major poets, such as T.S.Eliot and Ted Hughes, to have a big influence on the development of English poetry in the 20th century. Hughes said: He is the father of us all. Thomas and Robert Frost were best friends. It was Frost who encouraged Thomas to turn to poetry at the age of 36, three years before his death. He is still not as widely known as Wilfred Owen, who was the other significant poet to be killed on the Western Front. Please read my poem 'Roads To France' written about him and in his memory.
